Recruitment of Japanese-language Lecturers

The Japan Foundation, Manila, is looking for local-based Japanese-language Lecturers to handle the Japanese-Language Course for JPEPA Nurse & Care Worker Candidates (Batch 16). 

◎ Features of the course
Lecturers will be asked to handle a special intensive course of 7 months for nurse & care worker candidates who will work in Japan under the Japan-Philippines Economic Partnership Agreement (JPEPA). This course has been designed primarily to enable the learners to use the Japanese language at their workplaces, such as hospitals and caregiving facilities, and also for them to learn how to adapt to a culture and society different from their own, namely Japan. Lecturers are expected to teach only in Japanese (Direct Method) and to encourage learners to explore and discover new things during the lessons instead of just providing grammatical rules and drills, thus helping the learners attain autonomous learning, whether at study or work, upon their arrival in Japan. 

◎ We require lecturers to be: 

■ Cooperative —— a lecturer who can work with Japanese and other Filipino lecturers in a team.
■ Flexible ———— a lecturer who can respond accordingly to the learners’ actual needs and readiness, not just relying on their own experience.
■ Open-minded — a lecturer capable of trying different ways to teach. 

◎ Required Skills: 

■ Nihongo Proficiency (non-Japanese applicants) — JLPT N1, N2, or N3 level
■ Basic IT Skills — Zoom, etc. 

◎ Required Teaching Environment: 

■ Stable and Fast Internet  — Wifi speed of at least 15 Mbps
■ A PC/laptop —  with sufficient specs to conduct online classes

◎Other requirements for non-Filipino applicants.

(1)フィリピンの永住権保持者もしくはフィリピンでの就労許可をお持ちの方。
(2)フィリピン国内に居住している方。
(3)母国語並の日本語能力を有する方が望ましい。
(4)英語での業務が可能な方。英語に加えタガログ語もできればより望ましい。
(5)日本語教授経験がある方。
